How to Make a Dog Agility Course Using the Right Equipment

 

To successfully build your own DIY dog agility course, you’ll need several supplies to bring a great dog agility course to your backyard.

When considering different objects to use for your course, take into account your dog’s ability. You’ll need to make sure that obstacles are size-appropriate, as a hoop made for an Australian Shepherd will be too big for a Papillon.

Make sure you’re not buying dog agility equipment that is difficult for your dog, especially if they have other agility issues like back problems or other physical limitations.

That being said, there are several common pieces of equipment and supplies you’ll want to make a great dog agility course.

Contact Objects
Contact objects are typically built from wood or aluminum, usually in an A-frame shape. You can buy ready-made contact objects or make your own.

These are great for having your dog run up one side and down the other.

PVC Pipe Weaves and Jumps
PVC pipes are your key to a great DIY dog agility course. Buy these along with pipe tees and elbows, as this will help you construct obstacles.

These pipes can be great weaving objects for your dog to practice weaving through or even for DIY dog agility jumps. Piecing together PVC pipes to create weaves or jumps can be easy and effective.

Teeter-Totters
Buying or making a teeter-totter and installing it will add to your dog agility course. Your pet will be able to show off their skills using a teeter-totter in their backyard course.
